METHOD OF DRIVING A DISPLAY PANEL FOR IMPROVING DISPLAY QUALITY WHEN DISPLAYING A 2D IMAGE AND A 3D IMAGE AND A DISPLAY DEVICE FOR THE SAME

摘要

PURPOSE: A method of driving a display panel and a display device for the same improve side visibility by dividing a unit pixel into a high pixel and a low pixel when displaying a 2D image and improve the display characteristics of a 3D image by driving the high pixel and the low pixel at the same timing when displaying the 3D image and reducing a time for scanning a gate line.;CONSTITUTION: A method of driving a display panel includes a step of determining a driving mode including a 2D image mode and a 3D image mode; a step of generating a first gate drive control signal and a second gate drive control signal by converting an input control signal according to the driving mode; a step of outputting a first gate signal to an odd-numbered gate line connected to a first subpixel in a unit pixel of the display panel based on the first gate drive control signal; and a step of outputting a second gate signal independent from the first gate signal to an even-numbered gate line connected to a second subpixel in the unit pixel of the display panel based on the second gate drive control signal.;COPYRIGHT KIPO 2013;[Reference numerals] (200) Timing controller; (300) First gate driving unit; (310) Second gate driving unit; (400) Gamma reference voltage generating unit; (500) Data driving unit
